I have just started my own Tree Surgery business and my Disco has got to go - need the space and money - as I have had to invest £?,000's in a truck, chipper, trailer, and all the other kit. - ropes, harnesses, saws, etc.

Maintenance and Servicing: I have a file full of receipts approx 2-3" s thick for parts and servicing work done to this vehicle - as you can see the parts and kit are all first class items and the servicing/repair/fitting work has been carried out by one of the leading Land Rover independent specialists.
There are also items that I do not have receipts for - Exhaust, tyres, alloys, snorkel, roof rack etc. The missing receipts must total £5-6000 and the receipted items £8000-10000.
2005-2006 - Various servicing work and all off-roading mods and kit, cambelt, new starter motor, new propshaft and reconed gearbox, new steering box, full brake overhaul, underbody protection fitted, susension fitted, trackrods, bonnet pins, batteries, winch and all associated parts, Nat Lunar batt mon, bumpers, rocksliders, guages, new alternaor, gearbox seals, new inj pump, pas pump, transferbox, a frame ball joint.
The boot floor was replaced and the whole inside and underside painted with Hammerite, which has been refreshed since.
So not only well prepped mechanically and kitted out for off roading, green laning, competitions or expeditions this truck has been fully overhauled and almost rebuilt. Has a few scratches and dings - particularly one to the off side rear qtr, but nothing that detracts from its capabilites.
Superbly capable and ready to roll. Get yourself a bargain and be the envy of your friends - you just got to add up some of the costs above to know shes worth an offer for daily driver/off-roader/comp truck/overlanding - capable for any of the above and most of the expense has been taken care of by someone else.
Offers welcome - would prefer to sell as a whole, she is going up on ebay later, then if no takers would be open to offers for vehicle and /or bolted on parts - will try to add pics/link later - here it is:
